here's a wee laugh for you....

Brian invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the meal, Brian's mother couldn't help but notice how beautiful Brian's flatmate, Susan, was. Brian's Mum had long been suspicious of the platonic relationship between Brian and Susan, and this had only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Brian and Susan than met the eye.

Reading his mum's thoughts, Brian volunteered, 'I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you Susan and I are just flatmates.'

About a week later, Susan came to Brian saying, 'Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?'

Brian said, 'Well, I doubt it, but I'll send her an e-mail just to be sure. So he sat down and wrote:

__________________________________________________________

Dear Mum,

I'm not saying that you 'did' take the gravy ladle from the house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.

Love, Brian

Several days later, Brian received an email back from his mother that read:
____________________________________________________

Dear Son,

I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Susan, I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Susan. But the fact remains that if Susan is sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now.

Love, Mum

LESSON OF THE DAY -
NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER
